Abstract
This article explores, through the mapping and projection of a range of scenario paths, the future possibilities for opposition party politics in South Africa. The article discusses pre‐election, election and post‐election trends towards potential realignment in opposition politics, as well as trends indicating the affirmation and amplification of pre‐existing tendencies in party politics. The analysis draws on a number of interviews with party political actors, media monitoring and direct observation by the author.
